Ingredients
Chia seeds
1 teaspoon
Apple
1 piece
Oats
25 g
Infant formula
75ml
Steps
1.
Mix together the fruit, oats, chia seeds and milk. If baby is used to soft foods and purées, you’ll need to steam the fruit (see tip below). If baby is used to more texture then you can peel and finely grate the apple or pear.
2.
Soak for an hour, covered in the fridge – the Bircher is ready to serve when the chia seeds are completely soft and gel-like. For babies, this should be eaten on the day of making, for toddlers, you can leave it in the fridge overnight and serve for breakfast if you like.
